A plant & meat based diet (as our forefathers used to eat many moons before all of us were born!) is likely very good for the gut. I've seen several studies that show stress and anxiety comes from the gut so that may be motivation enough to switch up our diets right there! Keto has also been proven to have major health benefits for those suffering from epilepsy, which is rather amazing. I have been wanting to switch to a pure fruit, veg & meat diet for a while but giving up carbs is difficult when you are a busy bee lol. Hope this diet works well for whoever tries it.
Interesting thread. I tried the keto diet several years ago, and it definitely worked. Lost about 2 pounds per week, then leveled off. Eliminated all processed foods, most carbs, no soda, just LaCroix sparkling water. It does take effort to follow this, especially away from home. Stayed completely away from any fast foods. Occasionally splurge on a pizza. Been at ideal weight for 6 years.
